Having already traversed several small worlds and possessing the powerful cheat system, Chu Yuan felt more curiosity and excitement when faced with temptation.

Fear or timidity are emotions that only children experience.

After dressing up, she looked all pink and tender, just like a sweet candy in summer.

Looking in the mirror, she poked at her dimples, which looked like the perfect smile, and blinked her misty eyes.

"Is this green tea enough? I want to slap myself just looking at myself." Chu Yuan said to the system.

The electronic voice rose an octave: 【Wow, this is beautiful! I love it! I love it!】

Chu Yuan thought, "As expected of a science and engineering geek!"

Chu Yuan arrived at the Midnight Kingdom Blue Dream Bay Club in Beicheng by taxi as agreed.

From the outside, the castle-like building resembles ancient Western architecture, exuding mystery amidst its rustic charm.

The azure neon lights flickered on and off, completely enveloping the building, while several blue laser beams refracted from the rooftop into the night sky, creating a breathtaking scene.

Given this atmosphere, tonight's game is definitely going to be a high-level one.

As soon as Chu Yuan entered, she stood out from the scantily clad beauties, attracting countless curious and scrutinizing glances.

Because although her entire outfit was quite valuable, it was relatively conservative, and she didn't reveal any parts that shouldn't be exposed.

It's like a pampered, well-behaved girl sneaking out to see the world.

Chu Yuan ignored these stares and politely asked the waiter how to get to room 1019.

She wanted to see who was really behind all this charade.

"You want to go to room 1019? Sure, that's a top-tier VIP room, reserved for Young Master Gu all year round. Please wait a moment, I'll personally take you there."

The waiter was extremely friendly, and his appearance and figure were also excellent. He led the way with a humble demeanor.

Chu Yuan wondered to herself, "Young Master Gu? Who is that?"

Does she know such a person in this dimension?

In the blink of an eye, we arrived at room 1019.

Just as the waiter was about to push open the door, Chu Yuan unexpectedly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure through the transparent doorway. The man's face was directly facing the door, and she could see him clearly.

Isn't that Ning Mochen? What's he doing here?

Chu Yuan subconsciously stopped the waiter, "Excuse me, I need to go to the restroom to touch up my makeup. I'll go in by myself in a bit."

"Okay, ma'am, please make yourself at home."

The waiter didn't ask any questions or say anything more, and then turned and left.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, Chu Yuan quietly approached the private room. Although the soundproofing was very good and she couldn't hear what was being said inside, that didn't stop her from understanding.

Who told me I learned lip reading?

The man with his back to her pushed a glass of wine in front of Ning Mochen and seemed to say something.

Chu Yuan couldn't see the man's face, so she couldn't read his lip movements, but the man's frivolous blue-gray hair seemed somewhat familiar.

Ning Mochen glanced at the wine glass, remaining as steady as a mountain, and slowly leaned back in his chair, his expression behind his glasses nonchalant: "What joke is Young Master Gu making? Isn't keeping female students your hobby? When did this kind of thing become my business?"

"Is President Ning denying it?" Gu Qingyan said to herself, taking a sip of her drink.

Ning Mochen smiled faintly, "No and denying are two different things. If Young Master Gu doesn't have anything important to do, then I'll excuse myself because I have other engagements and won't waste my time with you here."

Ning Mochen was intercepted by Gu Qingyan at the last minute; he had a business engagement in another private room.

Being inexplicably tricked into coming here, and then being told some ambiguous things, made Ning Mochen feel quite uncomfortable.

Without any hesitation, the man got up and walked towards the door.

Chu Yuan quickly dodged, thinking, "Oh no, what if I run into him?"

Although she wasn't afraid of Ning Mochen, she was actually quite looking forward to seeing him.

But getting caught eavesdropping right from the start isn't a good idea, is it?

So she scanned her surroundings, trying to find a way to hide herself, but found that the door to the private room remained closed. Mustering her courage, she peered closer, and oh dear…

As he walked past, the other person grabbed his right arm and pulled a photo out of their pocket, waving it in front of Ning Mochen.

The lighting wasn't good, and Chu Yuan couldn't make out what was in the photo.

However, after that photo was released, Ning Mochen, who had been calm and composed, suddenly became a little strange, his eyes narrowed and his whole aura changed.

This made Chu Yuan curious. What could possibly elicit such a strong reaction from Ning Mochen?

Just as she was lost in thought, the door to the private room was suddenly pulled open from the inside, and a smiling face under blue-gray hair came into Chu Yuan's view in astonishment.

Gu Qingyan was extremely friendly. "Little sister, I told you we'd meet again."

"You...you are..." Chu Yuan stretched out her finger, utterly astonished.

It's him!

Remembering how the waiter had called him Young Master Gu, Chu Yuan glanced at him, then at Ning Mochen, whose expression wasn't good, and stood awkwardly at the door, unsure whether to go in or not.

"Come in, everyone's familiar here. Oh, right, I sent you the text message." Gu Qingyan had a smug look on her face.

Chu Yuan suddenly had a strong survival instinct and said, "Forget it, I'm not familiar with you. You two chat, I'll go first."

"Wait a minute, don't you want to know why your sure-fire second female lead role in 'Deep Palace' was canceled?"

Gu Qingyan stood directly in front of Chu Yuan.

Chu Yuan's mind raced.

Could Ning Mochen's presence here be related to him?

Did he not want to act?

For a moment, this thought naturally came to her mind.

Then, just as Gu Qingyan had predicted, she didn't want to leave and wanted to hear the truth.

She doesn't necessarily want to play the second female lead, but if Ning Mochen doesn't allow it, or even gives the role that was originally hers to someone else, then she will be unhappy.
